American Idol Season 5

Mandisa may be gone from Idol but I expect to see great things from her in the future. What a beautiful, gracious, lady she is. Good luck Mandisa!!

I agree. She my be the new Aretha Franklin or Whitney Houston.

Wow . . . I just am in such shock about the results. I mean, she was horrible and everything, totally butchered that S. Twain song, but I really thought she'd have more of a fan base than that. She's been awesome up until now, she can sing circles around just about anyone in the competition. Not saying she's my fav . . . Just that she shouldn't have gone - especially before bucky . . . Wow . . .

I'm sure that this won't be the end for her though . . . she's probably already been signed . . . which is probably the best thing for her.

I too am in shock that she's gone, but I am glad Paris was in the bottom 3. She needs to realize that she's not all that.
Elliot... oh I just love his voice. I don't know why he was in the bottom 3, yeah he's not the easiest on the eyes... but he sounds great!
I'm still waiting for Ace to go Bye Bye!!
Go CHRIS!!! love ya Babe!

Elliot... oh I just love his voice. I don't know why he was in the bottom 3, yeah he's not the easiest on the eyes... but he sounds great!

He does look better with the goatee, doesn't he?

It wasn't Mandisa's time. She wasn't going to win, but in my perfect world, she would have been in the top 4.

I didn't know Queen had that many hits to do so next week should be interesting.

Also... wasn't is CRUEL how Ryan goes something like,

"The person leaving and going home tonight is Elliot............... You are SAFE!"

Gawsh!!

Mandisa will be busy I'm sure. As one of the top 10, she will be on tour with the Idols this summer. Like Diana DiGarmo (sp?) who has a great career on broadway right now, Mandisa is going to be around for a LONG time. She is beautiful and can sure belt out a tune.

I was honestly hoping it was Paris...I mean she can sing and everything, but isn't she the one with the aunt who's the famous singer? I really don't think she ever needed AI. She could have easily gotten a record contract....I'm really sad that Mandisa got voted off. She was one of my top 5, and Bucky totally should have gone before her...I'm really disappointed in American and AI

Elliot... oh I just love his voice. I don't know why he was in the bottom 3, yeah he's not the easiest on the eyes... but he sounds great!

Oh I totally agree!!! I love his voice and I especially loved when he sang Moody's Mood for Love - that was AWESOME!!!! Can you believe my husband calls him Beaky Buzzard from Looney Tunes - shame on him. I don't care what he looks like, the boy can sing! Guess I need to start calling for him.

Still shocked and saddened that Mandisa is gone.

I am a big fan of Elliot's also. I love his voice. I have voted for him the last two shows. I have never done that before either, but I'm so afraid that he is going to get kicked off because he isn't one of the "pretty people". Elliot, Taylor and Chris are my favs and I hope I hear lots more from them in the future.
